(I copied and pasted most of this from an Smwcentral Thread)

This hack was Originally Known as Super Mario Chronicle: The Black Abyss, but I changed it to match the new story.

The full title is Super Mario Chronicle: Escape from The Prison Islands! I'm planning to have it be a half-action, half-story based hack, kind of like SMI2. The levels will mostly be Action-Packed, but there will be some story elements too, like cutscenes, and (An Original Idea by Yours Truly) playable Flashbacks to earlier times. Such "Flashbacks" will have a foggy HDMA effect like this:

That's right, this hack will have HDMA. I won't overuse cutscenes, flashbacks or HDMA too much, but when the situation calls for it, they will be used. I might also use HDMA to make a blue sky or sunset, but still, I don't want to overuse it.

Anyways, our story goes like this:

One day, Bowser invaded the Mushroom Kingdom and turned it into the Koopa Kingdom. He captured Princess Peach and Threw The Mushroom Kingdom's Residents into Prisons on the Prison Islands. Mario got thrown into one of such prisons, on Bellingham Isle. So Mario Must Escape and Rescue toads from Prisons, to Build up an Army so he can Overthrow Bowser, Rescue Peach, and Regain Control of the Mushroom Kingdom once and for all.

And now, the Part you've all been waiting for, the Screenies! (Keep in mind, some of them, like the last one of Bellingham Prison, are Very Dated)

Bellingham Prison:





This is the Prison Mario gets Locked in at the Start of the Game. Suprisingly, it is still under construction (Not in a "Work in Progress" kind of way, it's actually under construction, look at the screenshot.), and has many security flaws.

Bellingham Ridge:




A Bunch of Cliffs on Bellingham Isle. This area, in particular, has a very secure secret.

Overworld: (Very, very, beta)


Yeah... I'm planning on doing this part of the hack last...

???:



Meh, Just some tilesets I ripped from spritesheets... (BTW, Many of the GFX are Ripped or Drawn By Me.)

All Screenshots are Under development and are Subject to Change.

And a very special thanks to Player 1, who helped me out with HDMA, gave me a few ideas, and is Beta-Testing the hack.

I started this hack last May.

Now, you might not know me here, but I go to SMWC much more often than here (I have about 1200 posts there).

You can expect a release of a 1-world demo by Mid-August, but I can't make any promises yet.

If nobody has mentioned that these trees are butt-ugly, then everyone who has seen them has to be blind.

Also, HDMA, that reminds me, I need to learn how to use that. Nice try at fog.

I know they're ugly... but it was my first attempt at spritesheet ripping.

Apart from the ugly trees on the last screenshot (which you should probably just scrap), this hack looks rather intresting.

I cracks in the background, almost looking like a character could fall down in them. Are they just decorative, or you can actually fall in them?
